The Texas Tech Red Raiders’ football program has a lot to be proud of lately. Texas Tech is coming off a strong eight-win 2022 campaign – one where the Red Raiders beat both the Texas Longhorns and Oklahoma Sooners in the same season for the first time ever. Less than two months after Texas Tech clobbered the SEC’s Ole Miss Rebels by a score of 42-25 in the 2022 TaxAct Texas Bowl, Zach Thomas became the first Red Raider in program history to be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Additionally, now-former Red Raiders defensive end Tyree Wilson became the 10th player in program history to be a first-round pick in the NFL Draft last month.
